纽约时报：军方调查已经得出结论，美军用战斧导弹袭击了伊朗女子小学 caus.com/all-articles/n…
官员声称，这栋建筑并非一直作为学校使用，学校具体何时在这里设立仍不清楚。但《纽约时报》视觉调查显示，这栋学校建筑在2013年至2016年之间已经与军事基地分隔开。
当时曾经位于建筑附近的哨塔已经被拆除。学校开设了三个公共入口，地面被清理，沥青地面上画出了包括运动场在内的活动区域，墙壁被涂成蓝色和粉色。
了解调查初步结果的人说，美国国防情报局提供的“目标编码”在传递给负责战争行动的美国中央司令部时，把这栋学校建筑标记为军事目标。

在朋友的推荐下我昨天刚刚听完这本书，起初我是抗拒的，因我在过去十数年里一直称王沪宁为『妖师』我和许多“反贼”有相似的心灵成长路径，都曾用情绪替代逻辑，也都曾把认为短视的咆哮粉饰成愚昧的勇敢。
直至昨夜，33岁的作者王沪宁让我第一次认识70岁的王沪宁，在那个国力霄壤之别，信息极度封闭的年代，王沪宁对美国的细腻观察与前卫解构令我惊讶。原来…真正重要的思想，从来不是顺着时代情绪走的，而是逆着繁华看结构。
80年代那波出国潮里，很多中国知识分子第一次直面西方的繁华，被“物质与秩序的表象”当场震慑！这种震慑甚至变成一种延续至今的心理阴影：看见差距，就先丧失判断力。
《美国反对美国》之所以罕见，恰在于王沪宁没有被这层繁华夺走视线。他在停留美国并不长的情况下，依然能把美国当作一个系统来解剖：透过消费盛景去看制度张力、社会撕裂与内在自耗的结构逻辑。也因此，这本书放到今天重读，仍像一份提前写好的“未来说明书”——它不是情绪化的反美，而是冷静到近乎残酷的结构洞察。
不难猜测，我推荐王沪宁著作必会引发“简中圈老地痞”们再一次癫痫发作，辱骂的辞藻万年不变，如同他们的积蓄与脑子。他们一生都在忙着判断谁是“大外宣”、谁在“跪舔”，却从不研究自己假想敌的真实结构、运行逻辑与力量来源。结果只能活在谣言自洽的回音室里，把失败归咎于立场，把无知包装成正义。
但我还是善意的推荐给骂我的你们：心照不宣，你们这辈子其实到此为止了，边缘的余生注定在幻想中耗尽。但基于对生命负责的态度，你们有义务让自己参悟沦落背后的底层逻辑。倘若被时代甩成灰是宿命，至少也该死个明白。

本人89.64那段也是在北京上学，参加过4.22晚上的游行，4.23上午在广场的胡耀邦追悼会直播，4.26的游行，5.15晚上广场的静坐，5.19晚上5.20清晨堵军车。只是阴差阳错，6.3日下午离开了北京。同宿舍的同学6.4号早上就在纪念碑下面的台阶上，而且还傻逼呼呼地用带闪光灯的相机拍了清场的戒严部队。这哥们现在还在中国境内活得好好的，只是当时相机被士兵收缴了。一个事实：广场上没死一个人，所有的学生和群众死亡，都发生在戒严部队向广场推进的途中。
当年大家也都悲愤得不能自己，本人也是到40来岁还是一个恨国党。但最近十几年，一是阅历增加，或者说年纪大了见的事情多了，二是共党治国成绩的确有目共睹而且有切身体会，越来越理解共党当年的果断，其实是国家之幸，民族之幸。
顺便说个小插曲，年轻的时候曾有一个领导，是国民党的退役上校。这哥们很早就在大陆做生意，认识一些人。他曾对我讲，89年5-6月间，学生占领广场的那段时间，他曾打电话给北京的有关部门，说：你们为什么不杀？🤣🤣

Oh look. It's an As-a-Jew.
Can you point to a single other "genocide" in history where:
a) The target population grew larger every year,
b) The target population refused to surrender,
c) The genocidal party provided mass humanitarian aid
d) The genocidal party warned the population to move
e) The target population of this genocide immediately held victory parades?
f) The genocidal party had the ability to wipe out the entire target party from the air without a single military casualty but chose not to do so?
g) The genocide abruptly stopped with a ceasefire agreement.
Any one example will do. Just one. I'll wait.

All my life, I wrestled with this question: How could millions of ordinary people have participated in or enabled the Holocaust?
NOW, when I see the behaviour of the British politico-media elites in relation to the Gaza GENOCIDE, I think I understand

Keith Bradsher: "A growing number of economists and business leaders, including former senior officials at China’s own central bank, are calling on Beijing to let the renminbi increase in value against the dollar and other currencies."

I'm always surprised how little people know about Mao's actual economic record.
Most - like Melissa here 👇- repeat the standard narrative: he kept China poor, and it's only after Deng Xiaoping opened up China that the country experienced economic growth. Basically the idea is that China succeeded despite Mao (and often, as Melissa claims, despite the Party altogether) rather than because of anything that happened during his tenure.
The only problem is that it's completely false. The truth - which I know challenges much of what's been told in the West - is that Mao's economic record was actually not bad at all.
One number for you: under Mao, China's GDP PPP per capita (meaning per person) was multiplied by 2.5X from just above $400 in the early 1950s to nearly $1,000 in 1978. These figures aren't from a "communist source", they're taken straight from a report by the Congressional Research Service, the research arm of the U.S. Congress (sgp.fas.org/crs/row/RL3353…).
If this doesn't sound like much to you, it's actually more growth than in either India or Indonesia during the same period, which were China's most comparable peers at the time (they shared China’s large population, extreme poverty, pre-industrial economic structure, low literacy and colonial legacy).
China's substantial growth is confirmed in another report by the National Bureau of Economic Research (NBER), one of the most prestigious economic research institutions in the U.S., who found in a report entitled "The Economy of People’s Republic of China from 1953" (nber.org/papers/w21397) that "the Chinese economy in 1952-1978 grew rather rapidly" with an average annual growth rate of real GDP of 6%.
Which, when you take into account population growth during Mao's time, translates to China’s GDP per capita nearly tripling (2.85X) during his tenure.
Which means that far from making China poor, the truth is that Mao made the average Chinese person nearly three times richer over his tenure.
Furthermore, as we'll see, the growth that accelerated after Mao under Deng Xiaoping (and later) would have been completely impossible without the transformation of China that he presided over.
It might not make me popular but the misperceptions on this topic are so commonplace that I've decided to write an entire article looking in depth into Mao's economic record, which I hope will challenge some of the lazy assumptions that dominate discussions about China’s rise.
My article doesn’t shy away from the Great Leap Forward or the Cultural Revolution - and in fact I uncovered some fascinatingly unexpected facts about both episodes.

How many times do I have to hear this stupid trope that “the CCP lifted 800 million Chinese out of poverty.” How convenient to ignore why they were poor in the first place. Since it began ruling China in 1948, it was the CCP who kept hundreds of millions in poverty. It was only after market reforms and granting basic freedoms that the Chinese people lifted THEMSELVES out of poverty. And even now, the reality of the Chinese economy doesn’t reflect the gleaming propaganda. The reason you see so much sabre-rattling on Taiwan and escalating tensions with Japan is because the Chinese economy is sputtering and the CCP is feeling the heat. So it must shore up nationalist sentiment to reinforce its legitimacy.

ONCE AGAIN, THE UN CHOSE COLONIALISM OVER LIBERATION.
Its new Resolution 2803 liquidates Palestinian rights, whitewashes Israel’s crimes, cements occupation, & openly mocks the ICJ’s order to end Israel’s unlawful presence unconditionally.

Yes, Toyota's solid-state battery plans were certified by Japan's METI in 2024, with production set for 2026. Claimed specs match: up to 1200 km range, 10-min charge to 80%, >500 Wh/kg density vs. 150-350 for current batteries, ~15-year lifespan with minimal degradation, and reduced fire risk due to solid electrolytes.

Larry and Davis Ellison, fanatical Zionist Jew billionaires who are the richest men on earth and fund the Israeli rape-army just bought CBS News and made its editor-in-chief Bari Weiss, a deranged fanatical Zionist propagandist of the lowest order who murdered Refaat Alareer and members of his family including a newborn by putting a kill target on him in an active genocide zone.
They also took over Paramount, TikTok, CNN and countless media entities under that umbrella. And the entire media class treats it as totally normal and fine, CNN's Jake Tapper and Dana Bash, MSNBC, ABC News, AP, Reuters, NYT, they all consider it perfectly normal.
Zionist Jews own the US and West. They own everything in the US and the West, and anyone who denies this truism is deliberately laundering their total hegemony over the US and Western media and political class.

What is happening in Gaza has shaken the conscience of the world.
Man-made famine can never be a weapon of war. This must stop.
EU aid to Gaza far outweighs that of any other partner.
But of course, Europe needs to do more.
Here are measures for a way forward ↓
